tactics Flashcards
awareness of team strategies, defensive strategies man to man marking
Players in a football team transition from attacking and defending. This means that each player must have good knowledge of team strategies such as man to man marking as when the opposition has the ball, man to man marking can help make it more difficult for the opposition to attack as they will struggle to perform set plays due to the constant pressure
overall effect on performance, man to man marking
This tactic was a strength as my player adopted a good defending positioning on the pitch. This was evident early on when the opposition was in possession of the ball and was attacking, my player identified a likely pass option and stood goal side of the opposition about an arms length away communicating to the rest of their team of when to press showing good confidence and control in defensive situations this had an overall effect on performance as it limited opportunities for the opposition allowing for their team to win the ball on numerous occasions
man to man marking theory
I believe the performer I observed is an extrovert as they were very vocal and interactive with their teammates organising both attacking and defensive positions on who to mark and when to press. Extroverts seek social situations and enjoy interaction and it was clear that these situations brought out their personality as they was communicating positional play.
Awareness of rules and regulations of the game
Rules and regualtions are used frequently throughout a football game. Such as when tackling it is important ot know the rules so you dont cause any fouls, asa well as the offside rule so you dont limit your team when attacking to the final third.

This was a strength with this performer as when they was tackling they always made sure they used the right technique this had an overall effect on performance as it ensured that they did not foul the opposition when tackling
theory for rules and regulations
Rules began to to be established in sport in post industrial britain and was set up by public school boys at Oxford and Cambridge as in this era, national system of education was established which improved literary skills for people in the working class allowing set rules to be created such as the offside rule.
understanding of where to dribble
when players are dribbling typically wingers or strikers they utilise the space on the pitch keeping their head up to assess the best option of where to dribble to allow them to advance up the pitch. Knowing where to dribble allows them to be more likely to keep possession making it harder for the defenders to defend against them.
overall effect on performer knowing where to dribble
this was a strength for this performer as the utilised the space on the pitch, keeping their head up, this had an overall effect on performance as on multiple occassions it allowed for them to attack into the attacking third making attacking runs and allowed them to make through balls into the striker.
theory for knowing where to dribble
the player i observed didnt seem to be affected by social inhibition which is the negative influence of others, who may be watching such as the audience.
Awareness of strengths and weaknesses of other players
Players often have strengths and weaknesses, knowing oppositions weaknesses allows you to manipulate their weakness to your advantage such as if the player doesnt have as good explosive strength as you, then you know you can outmuscle them , or if the performer doesnt have a good first touch then you can apply pressure to make them panic allowing you to steal or intercept the ball
overall effect on performance awareness of weaknesses of other players
This was a weakness for the performer as they didnt notice that a player they frequently marked in the clip had a poor first touch. This had an overall effect on performance as it meant that, when the oppositon the performer didnt apply as much pressure as they couldve to make them panic allowing them time to react to their poor touch, clearly showing that the performer i observed didnt realise that this was a weakness for them
theory for awareness of weaknesses of other players
The performer i watched seemed to have high levels of competitive anxiety as they seemed to worry during competitive situations as they didnt remain calm which prevented them from identifying the oppositions weaknesses.
